Galadriel was born during the Age of the Trees, in a time before Fëanor made the Silmarils or the Noldor rebelled against the Valar. I would say you are about right at 9,000 or so years.
The second time I read The Silm, I had a pencil and paper nearby so that I could jot down any bits I needed to clarify; especially the family trees and such.
And I have also been grateful to the Books section here. Many times I have had a thought or a query and these have always been solved by a quick search.....the variety and depth of discussion here is amazing.
